Manchester City - under new manager Manuel Pellegrini - made a number of big money signings in the transfer window, but are yet to really reap the rewards and hit top form on a consistent basis, surprisingly losing to Cardiff City.

Manchester United, meanwhile, travel to the Etihad Stadium under a new boss too; the fixture will be David Moyes' first Manchester derby, and he will be hoping for a better result than the 1-0 loss suffered against United's fierce rivals Liverpool.

Despite underwhelming starts to the Premier League, both sides go into the clash on the back of impressive wins in the Champions League and will be keen to replicate their form.
